+<h2>About This Server</h2>
+<h3>Hardware</h3>
+<p>
+ This server is an AMD Athlon II X2 250 Regor dual-core 3.0-GHz CPU sitting
+ next to one 2-GiB DDR3 SDRAM module, all on an Asus Micro-ATX motherboard
+ and sitting inside a very old and bare Gateway chassis. Connected to the
+ board is a 500-GB 7200-RPM hard disk drive. Powering the whole machine is a
+ 400-W ATX power supply. One front-mounted 80-mm fan keeps the case and
+ components cool.
+</p>
+<h3>Software</h3>
+<p>
+ This server runs Debian GNU/Linux. There is no non-free software (not even
+ firmware) installed on this system. I even have plans to someday port
+ coreboot (freely-licensed and high-quality boot firmware) to my server's
+ motherboard (and I purchased a board for which a port should be easy).
+</p>
+<p>
+ With the help of apticron, I keep the system up-to-date with proposed
+ updates and security fixes. These documents are served by the Apache Web
+ server with mod_include for SSI parsing. My mail server of choice is Exim 4,
+ however port 25 is currently firewalled. I manage virtual hosts in Apache
+ httpd and Exim using <a href="projects/vhc/">VHC</a>.
